In the world of music videos, where creativity meets cultural expression, few producers can claim to have bridged continents and sounds quite like Yashvi Mulchandani. As the mastermind behind the highly anticipated collaboration between Punjabi superstar Karan Aujla and American pop-rock icons OneRepublic, Yashvi has cemented her reputation as a dynamic music video producer capable of delivering unforgettable visual experiences.
“I’m incredibly grateful for this one,” Yashvi says, her voice filled with emotion. “To be part of something that bridges two completely different cultures and brings such iconic artists together-it’s been absolutely surreal.”
Crafting a Global Music Moment
Filmed over two adrenaline-filled days in Los Angeles on February 10th and 11th, 2025, the music video blends Karan Aujla’s electrifying Punjabi beats with OneRepublic’s signature pop-rock melodies. Yashvi, as the lead music video producer, brought this ambitious project to life, orchestrating a team of over 200 creatives to ensure every visual and musical element aligned perfectly.
“Shooting in LA gave us incredible resources, but it also came with its own challenges,” Yashvi recalls. “Managing two distinct musical styles and leading such a massive crew was definitely a rollercoaster-but I loved every single second.”
The Perfect Casting: Disha Patani Lights Up the Screen
A pivotal decision that elevated the project was casting Bollywood sensation Disha Patani as the leading lady. “When Disha came on board, it felt like everything clicked,” Yashvi reveals. “Her energy, charisma, and global appeal tied the whole video together, giving it that star power we needed. She was absolutely phenomenal on set.”
The Soundtrack to a Cultural Crossover
The track, produced by the brilliant Ikky, is where the real magic happened. “Ikky did something incredible with this song,” Yashvi beams. “He fused Karan Aujla’s Punjabi vibe with OneRepublic’s pop-rock soul in a way that feels fresh and exciting. It’s not just a song-it’s an experience.”
Behind the Scenes: The Highs and the Hurdles
Like any large-scale production, challenges were inevitable. Coordinating international artists, navigating tight schedules, and balancing creative visions wasn’t always smooth sailing. “There were definitely moments of pure chaos,” Yashvi laughs. “But standing on set, watching it all come together-it made every bit of madness worth it. I couldn’t have asked for a better team.”
Her ability to manage large crews and complex productions while maintaining a clear creative vision highlights why Yashvi is becoming one of the most sought-after music video producers today.

Redefining Music Video Production
For Yashvi Mulchandani, this collaboration isn’t just about merging two music genres-it’s about pushing the boundaries of what music videos can represent. Her passion for storytelling and ability to unite diverse voices make her a standout figure in the global music scene.
“This project was a dream come true,” Yashvi reflects. “It shows the magic that happens when different worlds come together. As a music video producer, I live for moments like these-when we create something that transcends borders and speaks to everyone.”
As Yashvi continues to break new ground in music video production, one thing is clear-she’s not just producing videos; she’s crafting global experiences that resonate far beyond the screen.
